Today...

Today we are:

Planning a rocket ship/outer space themed redo of Lennox's room. His choice, of course. Mama is fighting the urge to turn the room into Lennox's own little galaxy with these goodies. Some of which will most definitely have to be part of the new room.

Lennox made it through his first visit to the dentist for a cleaning and check-up. He was such a big boy and it was a proud mama day for sure. My little buddy never ceases to amaze me. Not only did he sit perfectly still during the cleaning, but he carried around the "teeth bag" full of dental supplies with so much pride and insisted on using the new toothbrush tonight. He also asked if he could look at his shiny teeth in the mirror when we got home. Adorable

We also had some fun time with Den and Gran. We learned that Lennox is the "baseball kid" as he calls it. Den bought him a whiffle ball set for being good at the dentist and Lennox is quite the pitcher. Can't wait until he is five and can start tee-ball. 

We had a long talk about mama's job. He was amazed that I was a teacher. I know he has heard it before, but I think only now is he understanding that concept. So now I am "mama teacher." And we had a long talk about how my most important job is being his mama. 

We also had a good laugh after the bath tonight. Lennox is completely amused with his naked self and he could dance around the mirror looking at "my naked" all night. "Mama look at my naked." One day he will kill me for this post, but it is so funny and we have to fight to get his clothes on after his bath. But when we finally do he is so cuddly in his winter pj's. We have to rock before bed and then practice spelling his name on his coat rack which has his name on it. We name each letter and then sing the Lennox song that mama made up to help him learn how to spell his name. We read our books and Lennox helps me along. He loves Olivia lately and I Will Love You Forever. 

Trying really hard to relish the little stuff lately. Lennox is growing up so quickly and there is nothing better than being his mama and watching it all.
